this lesson we're going to look at how to show interest or surprise when making
a statement so stay tuned - how many times have you used really to show interest or
surprise well there are other ways to show surprise or interest let's look at
them I've finally redecorated my room really well this is the typical example
that you use to show surprise really as simple as that
let's look at another example Larry didn't show up for our appointment
really ? I wonder why. yes you can add I wonder why - I wonder I
wonder I ask myself why how come ? is another way to show surprise
which means why right how come why the next point that I want to show you is a
method that you need to use all the tenses so there you need to review all
the tenses to use this method so let's look at the example shall we ?
she met her future husband at work last month did she ?- yes that's right
did she ? in this case because we have a past simple sentence or statement she
met met is the past of the verb to meet so what is the auxilary of the past
simple ? well did - well in order to use this
method we need a formula the formula is auxilary plus pronoun in this case we
said she met her future husband at work last month what tense is this ? yes that's
right - past simple what's the auxiliary of the past simple ?
yes that's right did so did would be the auxiliary and
then the pronoun she - let's take a look at another example he'll fall off the
bike if you don't hold him steady will he ? right so in this example we have
a future statement he'll fall off the bike he'll he will so the auxiliary is
will and then the pronoun in this case is he - we have other methods for example
they don't appreciate your attitude - is that right ? - well in this case is that
right could be a little bit sarcastic right ? but we can even say oh yeah ? really ?
so the intonation is very important here so let's look at the same example with a
different intonation they don't appreciate your attitude- is that right ?
as you've heard in the example we can have different intonation so the intonation
is really important here - now let's look at how to show surprise
Sue has won the spelling competition at school - unbelievable !
yes we have expressions such unbelievable, wonderful Wow and you can
use them instead of ready let's look at another example
Bob watched the whole series in just a day - Wow ! yes this is another example and
we can have Wow - as an exclamation of surprise now let's look at other
examples showing surprise they found out he was cheating on his final exam - no way !
yes we can have other expressions such as get out ! I don't believe it ! holy cow !
oh my god ! oh my gosh ! as if ! no kidding these are all expressions that we can
use to show surprise now we have also expressions to show disappointment let's
look at this example we'll have to review all our grammar for next week's
lesson - that sucks ! yes I used a slang expression that sucks ! or you can use no
way ! no way ! to show disappointment well that's it for today if you have any
